The 2006-07 campaign delivered a dramatic and hard-fought La Liga survival for Levante, with Granotas clinging onto their top-flight status by finishing a crucial 15th. The decisive, unforgettable moment came in the penultimate round with a thrilling 4-2 home victory over city rivals Valencia, a result that secured their place in the top division. Leading the charge was the ever-reliable Riga Mustapha, whose 9 crucial league goals, including a match-winning brace against Valencia, proved vital. Amid a season marred by severe financial difficulties for the club, this year of grit and memorable upsets, such as the historic 1-0 victory at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid, remains a defining chapter of the Granotas' defiant fight for survival.
